Aathmavil muttivilichathu pole...









Dear Friends,

The next song I present before you is 'Aathmaavil muttivilichathu pole' from the movie 'Aaranyakam', released in the year 1988.
The music score was done by Pandit Raghunath Seth for the beautiful poetic lines of ONV Kurup. K.J. Yesudas' soulful rendition gave more life and sweetness to this song.

Pandit Raghunath Seth is one of the versatile Bansuri masters, who has composed music for over two thousand documentary films, TV serials and hindi movies. Malayalam music industry was fortunate to have him composed music for Hariharan's Aaranyakam. Hariharan's movies have brought music directors like Ravi Bombay, who has made a mark of his own in malayalam music. Panchagni, Oru Vadakkan Veeragatha, Sargam, Ghazal etc. are some of his best examples.

My version of this song was recorded for a program called 'Ninavu' on Kairali TV. Ninavu is a collection of some beautiful off-beat malayalam songs, which were released during 70s, 80s and 90s. It is telecasted on every wednesday at 10PM (UAE Time).

I hope you enjoy this song. Happy Listening!

Etho Nidrathan...







Hello Friends!

I present before you my first song 'Etho Nidrathan' from the movie 'Ayal Kadha Ezhuthukayanu'.

One of the many hit compositions of late music director Ravindran, lyrics penned by Kaithapram Damodaran Namboothiri and originally sung by K.J. Yesudas.
My version of the song was recorded live, more than 3 years back, for a program in Asianet called Sangeetha Sagaram. I had this opportunity to sing few songs in Ravindran maash's episode, where he was interviewed.This song takes me back to those days of anxiety and excitement, when i met this maestro and performed with him on several stages afterwards.

Having several classical hitches in my version of this song, i hope you would bear with me and enjoy this song.
